Artist’s Statement
Clay has sung its siren song to me nearly from the cradle, though I didn’t start potting until I was 15. I’ve lost and found myself in its intoxicating melody on and off for many years. Mud is in my soul, you might say.

Nonna Hall
Nonna Hall is the potter of the month. Her artist’s reception will be at the studio on June 12 at 7–9pm.
Artist’s Statement
Although I am relatively new to pottery (only two and a half years), I know for certain that it is now a significant part of my existence. It’s like I found a part of me that was missing my whole life.
The Big Pour
Thanks to everyone who joined us to celebrate pots that pour! The delicious sangria was generously donated by Ara Wine Bar, and organic tea blends were from Stiggly Holistics NYC.
The show will be up for the entire month of May, so come by any time (T-F: 12-9; S-S: 12-6).

Sacha Jones is the potter of the month for April.
Artist’s Statement
Pottery for me is like a resting place, a place to get out of my head and breathe. It’s corny to say it’s about getting centered, but there is such a truth to that cliche for me. It is at the pottery studio, much like in yoga, where I find a sense of personal peace.
Part of my pleasure with pottery is creating something with a person in mind, I love to imagine that person as I work, putting positive energy into their piece. I like to wedge my clay 108 times, and when I stir the glazes I do so in multiples of nine, always trying to think good thoughts. It’s a bit magical to me I suppose.
